Localization help needed for OpenOffice.org 2.0.1

It took some time to finalize OpenOffice.org 2.0 we released in October for several platforms and large number of languages at almost the same time. Now the planning for a new major release is ongoing. But in the meantime we continiously fix bugs and also introduce new features in micro releases (2.0.1, 2.0.2, ...). But this appreciated change in the handling of stable codelines faces us with the problem to keep the localizations in sync.

The highlevel release plan for 2.0.1 says that the deadline for fixes was on November 10th. If we look at the more detailed plan maintained in our new wiki, we see that a release candidate for 2.0.1 is overdue.

Some strings are not translated and unfortunately they are very visible in the insert menu. Please support the effort to finalize the translation so that we can try to regain the lost time. Many thanks for the Danish, Dutch, French, German translations contributed in hours after the call for help to issue 58172
